well, I like Fed more nowadays then before. I think he is being more honest. the whole confidence thing is a strange thing as tennis is such an individual sport. I'm sure that all players have to fight within themselves in a way.

Maybe his "real" fans (cough cough), who are so eager to put him out to pasture, will believe that there's nothing to the myth about his game being in decline when it comes straight from Federer's mouth rather than from objective non-fans.

After you guys broke up with him, I was still saying he will likely win a Wimbledon or US Open. I said he likely would have won the 2011 USO had he not panicked against Nole in the semis implying that, IMO, he likely would have beaten Rafa in the final.

I hadn't thrown him under the bus like his real fans (cough cough) had.

You're making it out as if though you're not a fan you still believe in him and that we just love him because he wins. Its a pretty way to hide the snake. Really we reprimand Federer because we love him and seeing him loose hurts and that means we're true fans and not a guy like you who has taken a vantage point with no real player to back but rather to mock the fervid adherents of any tennis player and in the process hide yourself behind some rather numb players and trade aspersions because you know no one can hit back.

You're an idiot, medwatt. You're like a hysterical little school girl with her pants on fire when Roger loses. You haven't been around long enough to know who I've followed for years. But I've managed to pull it off with my dignity in tact, you ridiculous little school girl.

Med, I'm sure you are a nice girl, but for God's sake some of you Fed fans get so crazy and fanatical. Everon here knows I'm a huge Nole fan but I have never worshiped him like you guys with Fed. I mean, read your post again.... it hurts when Fed loses, wtf hutrs...Fed is getting older. he is still a great player but I don't think he'll win any more slams. DEAL WITH IT.

Because Nole is not equal to Fed. The answer was right there. The problem is you simply can't accept certain facts. Its like the Jesus Christ concept. You have to accept he is the one. Get it. Get it.

sure let's fight now about who is bigger and better. you are really being silly. I'm perfectly aware of Rog's accomplishments but you really need to get over yourself. there is a reason why Djokovic is #1 in the world. again, you may not like it but it is what is. you also don't know how many slams will Novak win. all I'm saying is try not be so blind. and NO he is NOT the one. BORG IS THE ONE.

Man they're both SO DAMN skinny. Ridiculous. And Djokovic definitely has in my opinion probably the best tennis-player physique, I was amazed when he took his shirt off at the end of the AO, no-homo, he's now my role model as far as building a physique goes.

Just a word, federer fans will be federer fans because we love him and to make fun of that ALL THE F***ING time like some of you do coughBabcough gets irritating. You might find that Roger saying he lost confidence is silly but at that level that's probably exactly what it is as well and if you think you are a better judge of tennis and what these players go through, more power to you. But fans will be fans and haters will be haters. Nothing I say will change that. k, bye.

IMO Nole only took it to one level. The game was revolutionized with Borg's endurance. you guys are talking like kids And besides, I always thought that it was Rafa and Fed who brought in the physical endurance thing the past decade. Nole had to work hard so that he could play like THEM over 5 sets. Its another story that he is now better than them (although I still believe that Rafa has better endurance even now).

federer never revolutionized anything.......just like sampras he did his winning with textbook tennis.......he is lucky to have entered in the time frame he did.......if at all he did anything, he popularized tennis with the help of media and his nemesis rafael nadal.......

nadal is the one that revolutionized the way of winning.......he proved that one can be a GOAT without textbook tennis.......djokovic is just following suit......
